In today’s Georgia Straight is my feature review of BioShock 2. Rapture is a great place to return to.

The multiplayer component of the game, developed by London, Ontario’s Digital Extremes, is significant because it continues telling the story.

There’s something about the young girls in BioShock. With yellow, glowing eyes and weirdly distorted voices, they are creepier and more disturbing than any monster. The same girl with normal eyes and a sweet demeanour, however, brings out the parent in all of us. BioShock’s Little Sisters can exhibit both qualities, and they’re a big reason the two games in the franchise have been so successful.
